In addition to his school life, there were few people that could keep up with him when he started to work. He started a lawn service with his brother Jerod, which he managed until his death, moved furniture for A-1 Moving, and worked for his father in Diamond Detailing. Though he worked hard, he managed to keep enough energy to play harder. He loved to spend time four-wheeling, paintballing, shooting, SCUBA diving, and anything else that he considered exciting. His outgoing personality, flaming red hair, and unique stature made him a giant teddy bear, a shoulder to cry on, a sound advisor, and a friend to everyone. He knew no strangers and his heart was bigger than his frame. His love for Christ, recently took him to Malawi, Africa where he spent a month working in a missionary camp. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. He is survived by his parents, Jerry and Peggy Ulicki, his older brother Jerod, and his younger sister Janae, his grandparents Bob and Jan Samuelson of Ames, IA. In addition to those listed above, he is also survived by many aunts, uncles, cousins, and self-proclaimed siblings including Miracle Holder and Dennis Grandinetti. Jordan is preceded in death by his grandparents, John and Norma Ulicki, infant half sister Melody Anne Ulicki all of Fort Dodge, IA. Jordan's funeral service will be 10:00AM, Friday, July 18th at Decker Auditorium at Iowa Central Community College in Fort Dodge. Visitation will be on Thursday, July 17th at Gunderson's Funeral Home from 4:00-7:00PM.
